It could be said wtihout
fear of contradiction after the
Medford high basketball team
suppressed the Crater Com
ets here Saturday night that
the Black Tornado won in a
breeze.
Accelerated chiefly by their
big men, the Tornadoes piled
up an early and substantial
bulge and never seriously
were pressured as they whirl
ed 78 to 50 over the Comets
of Central Point in a South
ern Oregon conference tussle.
Medford with the triumph
retained its half-game leader
ship in the District 6 A-l
chase over the Grants Pass
Cavemen who on Saturday
dashed Ashland 55 to 28. The
Tornado verdict was its 10th
in 11 games this season.
Jerry Anderson ran up 26
points for Medford and Low
ell Dean 21 for the top scor
ing laurels. Wayne Allen pot
ted 20 for the Comets. Dean,

Cubs Potential 1st
Division Ball Club
(This is the 11th of 16 dis
patches by the major league
managers giving mid-winter
appraisals of their learns.)
By BOB SCHEFFING
Manager. Chicago Cubs
(Written for UPI)
, Scottsdale, Ariz. -(UPD- The
- Chicago Cubs haVe first divis
ion potential, and we almost
made it last year.
I'm not predicting anything
for the 1959 season, but I
wouldn't be surprised if we're
among the first four teams, es
pecially if injuries don't
plague our young, but promis
ing pitching staff.
What hurt us last year,
when we were going pretty
good, only two and one-half
games out of the lead on July
18th, was the arm-injury to
one of our top righthanded
pitchers, Moe Drabowsky. He
didn't pitch again, and we slid
out of the role of pennant
challenger into the second di
vision. I'm told he's ready
again, but we're bringing him
to spring camp early to have
a good look at him.
"We've been coming up a
little bit each season. We tied
with the Cardinals for fifth
last year, finished seventh the
year before. That's not bad
progress on our rebuilding
timetable, since three seasons
ago the Cubs were last.
Have Young Pitchers
We don't have any trades
cooking, but that doesn't
mean we wouldn't make a
deal or two to get a seasoned
pitcher to go along with our
youngsters. There's only one
of the pitching youngsters ov
er 24, and that's Dave Hill
man. Drabowsky, Dick Drott,
Glen Hobbie, our top winner
vT last year, Bob Anderson, Hill
man, Taylor Phillips and
Johnny Briggs offer a good
group to select the starters
from, and we've got Don Els
ton back for relief.
In Ernie Banks, the Cubs
have the National league's
most valuable player and top
slugger. For my money, he's
the best in baseball. He does
everything well, but because
of the way he swings that bat,
many fans forget he's a fine
fielding shortstop too.
Bobby Thomson, Lee Walls,
and Walt Moryn certainly
came through for us in the
outfield last year, each of
them hitting more than 20
homers.
Dark Looks Ready
Al Dark looks like he's got
a lot of baseball left in him at
third base. He got in 140
games last year, hit near .300,
and did a real job for us.
Wildlife Group
Against Merger
Corvallis -(UPD- The Oregon
Wildlife federation Sunday
adopted a resolution opposing
merger of the State Fish and
2 Game commissions into a sin-
gle agency.
- A bill introduced in the le-
- gislature would combine the
2 two groups.
- A resolution was passed

with 11, 10 and 10 retrieves
were the powers under the
backboards for Medford and
Koch contributed some spar
kling scoring assistance along
with his own nine counters.
A steady, hard playing work
er for Crater was John Burns
who put in five field buckets
for his team.
.466 From Field
The Black Tornado fired a
torrid .466 with 30 field goals
in 65 attempts and collected
on 18 of their 27 free heave
chances. In clearing the glass
when shots were missed Med
ford piled up a 48 to 23 ad
vantage. Anderson's long push put
the Tornado on the scoreboad
in the opening seconds of play
and Medford had run up 18
points by the time Loyal Hig
inbotham gained Crater's first
two points on free casts with
just over five minutes con
tended in the game.
The Tornado led 22 to 4 at
the quarter and with Ander
son, Koch, Jerry Shults and
Calvin Dean connecting had
a 22-point 37 to 15 margin
with two minutes left in the
first half. Allen plunked two
Tony Taylor, a rookie last
year, is back at second base,
and Dale Long is at first, sup
ported by Jim Marshall,
whom we bought from Balti
more last August.
Catching are Cal Neeman
and Sammy Taylor. Last year
they traded the catching du
ties just about evenly, with
Taylor, a left-handed hitter, in
the lineup against righthand
ed pitchers.
I say all these fellows add
up to a potentially tough ball
club, because they've proven
they can win. If we could
have added the last half of
the 1957 season to the first
half of last season, we'd have
a pennant winning percent
age. -
Now, if we can make both
halves of one season tough,
we'll be in good shape.

NATIONAL LEAGUE
United Press International
The Montreal Canadiens
look like a shoo-in for their
second straight National
Hockey league pennant, but
only five points separated the
other five clubs today iouow
ing week end action.
The Canadiens opened a 16
point eight-game lead on the
field by whipping the Detroit
Red Wings, 7-3, Sunday night
after rolling to a 3-1 victory
over the New York Rangers
Saturday night.
In other Sunday night
games the Rangers bounced
back with an 8-3 triumph over
Boston to tie Chicago for
second place, while the Tor
onto Maple Leafs beat the
Black Hawks for the first time
this season, 4-1.
AMERICAN LEAGUE
United Press International
A week end split with Her
shey left the Buffalo Bisons
in the same place today that
they were before it all started
-atop the American Hockey
league and one point in front
of the Bears.
After dropping a "5-2 decis
ion to Hershey Saturday night
the Bisons gained a 4-3 victory
over the Bears in overtime
Sunday.
Elsewhere in the circuit,
the Cleveland Barons dropped
both of their week end games,
3-1 to Springfield on Saturday
and 6-3 to Providence on Sun
day, but held onto their third
place margin.
field shots and Chuck Turner
and Higinbotham hit free
baskets to enable the Comets
to close the deficit to 37 to 21
at the halftime buzzer.
Another free tally by Higin
botham just after the third
canto began made it 37 to 22
but the Tornado broke away
again. Anderson connected for
four field goals and Lowell
Dean and Koch each three in
a 25-point third stanza which
saw Medford run up a 31
marker spread at 62 to 31.
Margin Hacked
Crater flared up as the
fourth quarter opened and
Allen boomed in three field
goals and Burns one to cut the
difference to 62 to 39. After
a Ken Durkee free marker
for Medford and another
Burns fielder the Medford
edge was down to 22 points
at. 63 to 41. But the Comets
couldn't come any closer and
the Tornado widened back to
30 points at 78 to 48.
The comfortable leads built
up in the first and third quar
ters allowed Medford Coach
Frank Roelandt to make con
siderable use of non-starters
in both the second and fourth
periods. Crater had scoring
edges of 17 to 15 and 19 to 16
in the second and fourth.
Anderson put in 10 field
goals in 17 tries and Lowell
Dean eight of 13. At the free
stripe Andy had six of seven
and Dean five of seven. Cra
ter's Allen gunned eight for
19 from the field.
The Comets lost the serv
ices of Bill White when the
fifth foul was tooted against
him with just 2Vz minutes
played In the second half.
Medford took a 57 to 38
junior varsity victory after a
27 to 17 halftime lead.

NBL Spread
United Press International
The National Basketball as
sociation posted a liberal re
ward today for the return of
those runaway St. Louis
Hawks.
St. Louis now leads the
Western division by 14 games
and practically all hope of
catching the Hawks has been
pigenholed for next season.
Bob Pettit, with 29 points,
and Cliff Hagan, with 27,
were the chief guns in the
Hawks' 115-111 victory over
the New York Knickerbock
ers Sunday. Richie Guerin
was outstanding in defeat,
scoring 41 points for the
Knicks.
Baylor Hits High
Rookie Elgin Baylor hit his
high-water mark as a pro by
scoring 41 points but it wasn't
enough to keep the Philadel
phia Warriors from defeating
the Minneapolis Lakers 125
111. Bill Sharman and Frank
Ramsey scored four points
apiece in an overtime period
to lead the Boston Celtics to
a 119-118 win over the De
troit Pistons.
Jack Twyman scored 17 of
his 33 points in the third pe
riod to bring the Cincinnati
Royals from behind to a 109
104 triumph over the Syra

Phoenix, Ariz. - (UPD - The
Pacific Coast League's weath
erized schedule today called
for the opening of the base
ball season on April 17 in
Phoenix, San Diego, Salt
Lake City and Sacramento.
The openers in the Pacific
Northwest will be played

League officials settled on
the later opening in the Pa
cific Northwest in hopes that
the experience of last year -when
rain washed out most of
the first two weeks of play -could
be avoided. The season
will be 154 games.
In the same way, Phoenix
will be away from home dur

season and named an execu
tive vice president.
League directors told Fred
David, president of the Sac
ramento Solons, he had one
week to decide whether the
ball club could operate during
the 1959 season.
If David can not show by
Jan. 31 that he can operate
during the season, O'Connor
said the PCL would take over
the franchise, try for 10 days
and then move the club to
another Community if that
failed.
The selection of Dewey So
rianu, former Seattle general
manager, as the executive
vice president of the league
was made Saturday at the
same time the directors
voted to retain O'Connor.
Soriano To Move Up
The move was seen as a
step toward preparing So
riano to assume O'Connor's
duties when the league presi
dent retires 'from baseball in
1960.
The All-Star game was set
for July 20 at San Diego.
Glendale had a 14 to 11
first canto edge and was tied
at 28-all at halftime with EP.
Bill Turner connected for 20
points and Jim Nease for 14
for Eagle Point. Cliff Worley
had 12 for Glendale.
Free tosses made the differ
ence in the tussle. The Pirates
canned 16 for 23 and Eagle
Point just nine for 22. The
Eagles had 23 to 22 margin in
shooting from the field.
Phoenix Has Struggle
Phoenix had a struggle on
its hands before pulling away
in the last six minutes of the
final quarter. Rogue River
was behind six points at 29 to
35 just after the last canto be
gan but cut the Phoenix
spread to 35 to 32 before the
home club began to surge into
control. The Phoenix club
upped to 41 to 32 and after a
44 to 35 count with lVz min
utes remaining got free tosses
to bring the score to its final
total.
Quarter scores with Phoe
nix ahead were 13 to 9, 22 to
19 and 34 to 29. Rogue River
had several leads in the first
quarter but never got on the
long end of the tabulation af
ter Phoenix got a 10 to 9 mar
gin. The Chiefs lagged by
only a point at stages of the
second quarter and were with
in two in parts of the third.
Freshman Mike Consbruck
was the scoring leader for
Phoenix with 18 and Mike
Reese had 11. Dave Carter's
